    11x17 folding... no booklet on a cs5050

    we have a customer that runs a ledger document double sided and wants it to fold in half. no staples and its a single document only one page(two if you count the second side). for some reason we can not get it to do that, print or copy.. will the machine do it?

    Nope. The booklet function is designed for 1-up originals, whether electronic or paper originals. And it must staple the booklets. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      I do not know if the CS5050 has the same functionality in booklet fold as the CS500ci series does; however, the CS500ci series will fold (without stapling) a duplexed 11x17 sheet. I haven't tested in on the new Taskalfa's yet.

        3000 sheet finisher will do that. I've seen it do it with KMC4035E.

        Is it from Microsoft Publisher? The original file has to be 8.5x11(portrait) single page, 1st with text/photo, 2nd to 4th blank. Under print menu, choose 1 page per sheet, and portrait. In KX driver, choose booklet or send to folding tray. Since its only 4 pages, staple function wont be activated.

        The new MS Office is really finicky in this regard.

        edit: are we talking folding with the 5050 or the available folding option with a big finisher?

            DOH! i've completely misread the original question, sry.

            edit: is the original based on a file? is tweaking possible and break it up to four 8.5x11 pages?
